As for how badly he's hurt, from when Hopper snaps his finger to stop the beatdown to saying ants serve Grasshoppers, Flick is on the ground immobile with several bruised spots, especially his eye. Standing up takes noticeable effort, but he's able to stay up until Hopper knocks him down.

The relevance of the words in this film today are unbelievable

[@_moops1820]

“Who’s idea was this?” Is one of the greatest lines I’ve ever heard in a movie. Earlier in the movie at the grasshoppers home, a grasshopper mentions to Hopper that they don’t need the food the ants lost, so why should they even go back there. Hopper engages with his idea momentarily, only to crush it so he never has another idea again. Hopper explains that they need to drive the ants hard and not allow mistakes to go unpunished to establish his dominance and maintain control. He recognizes that the ants outnumber them 100 to 1, and knows that if they ever recognize that, the grasshoppers will lose control. Hoppers is only able to control the ants because they believe the grasshoppers are stronger. When they rebel, he understands what happened and how it endangers his control: someone had an idea.

[@BullyMaguire2024]

The scene where Flik gets beaten to a pulp by Thumper reminds me of the part where General Mandible tortured Weaver from Antz. Only thing is that Antz is SO much darker than this movie.

[@Interestingenough4]

"A Bug's Life" is way better than "Antz," though.

[@greenmatrix30seven]

Antz was more geared towards the late teens early adults. Bugs life was more geared towards younger kids and pre teens.

And what were the ants going to do if the grasshoppers didn't leave. How many ants would have to die in order for victory, would they really be willing to sacrifice half the colony

[@lanceseenarine9804]

I think the whole scenario is that if Flik hadn't returned to the anthill, the grasshoppers would have tied and held down the queen for Hopper to successfully squish her while keeping the ants from saving her, then Hopper would have become king and enslaved the entire colony for life even if they outnumber the grasshoppers 100 to 1, forcing them to pick all the food and keeping them from eating at all or leaving Ant Island, which would conquered it into Hopper Island, and would order each grasshopper including himself to squish any ant who gets caught eating, refusing to work, or trying to escape. Basically all the ants would eventually die by starvation or execution. Thanks to that one grasshopper who blurted out Hopper's plan and Dot overhearing it all, Hopper failed miserably and that cost him big

[@dmoney322]

The ants would've died. Remember the guy who was counting the rations said that they couldn't give up any more food or they would starve. And Hopper was planning on killing the queen and taking all the food left on the island. So the ants never would've made it through the winter season. Flik literally saved all their lives

[@hamitcampos4989]

Yes all the sounds he makes are Jurrasic Park 2 T-Rex. When he roars at Thumper the foot step and roar are the girl rex as she stands up to chace the people at the camp. after that roar someone would've said "don't look just run run run!" Then she does a cooler version of Rexy's roar. Rexy is what JP fans call JP 1 girl rex. Well assuming when we actually see it it is still a girl.
